Using a boot CD, I boot WinXP (nothing special done on boot
sector). Then, I can reboot WinXP again and again without
problem. When I decide to boot FC3, it works fine but after
shutting it down, I run again in the problem.

Originally, the laptop used WinXP only. It was repartioned
using Partition Magic 8 and boot loader was replaced by
Boot Magic 8. Then, I installed FC3 (using single DVD distro).
GRUB was installed on first sector of partition, MBR supposedly
not modified. If you are intersted in deeper details, the
output of Partition Info is added at the end of this message.

Everything is now fine ... until you boot/shutdown FC3,
after which I run into the same boot problem again.

Of course, I can live with that. But having to use the
Boot-CD after each FC3 boot cycle is not very satisfactory.

Thanks to all for any idea.
